Thanks to generous donors and supporters like you, the Lower 9th Ward Homeownership Association (L9WHA) can work toward our mission of preservation and creation of homeownership and resident-driven revitalization of the historic Lower 9th Ward.  We could not do this without you, and we are truly grateful for your support and partnership in this work.

This year, we’ve set an ambitious goal to raise $3,000, and your support is critical in helping us get there. Early donations are now open, and every contribution, even before the big day, counts toward our #GivingTuesday goals.

 

Mark your calendar for November 28th, and join us in making an impact. Your support is invaluable in helping us reach our mission.
